title: Affinity capillary electrophoresis.
abstract: The application of affinity capillary electrophoresis (ACE) to the study of molecular interactions is reviewed. ACE appears to be a sensitive, versatile and convenient tool to obtain reliable data on binding constants and stoichiometries of interacting systems using the Hummel-Dreyer method and variants thereof. A powerful feature is the possibility to analyze simultaneously the affinity of a large number of compounds for the same ligand, making it a promising tool for the screening of large combinatorial libraries.
